10:15 AM

We nailed down a start time for 2 Pillars Church–Northeast worship gatherings:

We recently announced our public launch date, but left you hanging regarding the exact time of our Sunday gatherings. Well, we’ve finally arrived at a start time: 10:15AM.

Conveniently, we’re starting fifteen minutes later than our sending church. Do you think I’ll have time to grab a few pointers from Todd’s sermon before I preach each week?

2 Pillars Church–Northeast Public Launch

Last week was an exciting one for 2 Pillars Church–Northeast. We launched a new website and announced the date of our upcoming public launch.

From my post on the 2PCNE blog:

We are thrilled to announce that 2 Pillars Church–Northeast will hold its first-ever public worship service on Sunday, February 28. The gathering will be held at the Joyo Theatre in Havelock which will serve as our new home on Sunday mornings.

What an incredible announcement! We’ve been praying for this church plant, talking about this church plant, dreaming about this church plant, and planning for this church plant for years. And now, here we are.

Do you live in the Lincoln area? If so, I’d love for you to mark the date on your calendar and join us.

Tech Growth in Lincoln

Bloomberg featured Lincoln today as an emerging tech hub in the midwest. Strong salaries, low cost of living, and reasonable real estate prices are major contributors to the growth:

High prices on the West Coast are making it easier for the fresh crop of computer-science graduates and other techies to choose heartland hubs that are growing, in part, because putting down roots there doesn’t require a small fortune.

You don’t have to search long to find evidence of serious growth in Lincoln.

The tech echo-boom is already starting to hipsterize Nebraska’s capital city. The downtown now has three sushi restaurants, a speakeasy serving $12 cocktails and dozens of startups filling once-abandoned warehouses. New workers are pushing up real estate values. Home prices are up almost 14 percent since 2012 and apartment rents have risen 38 percent.

It’s an exciting time to call Lincoln home—even if you don’t care for sushi.
